Quote:No doubt, it has to hurt Dave's pride.  But there are only 32 gm jobs and 32 Personnel Director jobs.  And he's got one with the function of the other.  He's in an organization with one of the best owners in the league who believes in him and values him.  He gets to keep building his resume and essentially take a graduate degree of how to lead men up close and personal from TC.  He'll emerge better.  I think he's smart to stay.

I agree, I don't see him walking away, as you said it's a privilege to be a HC, GM, etc in the NFL. Plus it would be a bad look for him to just walk away from his job.

 

I hope they can all work together and he can pick Coughlin's brain to pieces, as he should. There's many of years of football knowledge in that brain.

 

I just don't want to see Coughlin get too power hungry and think he knows better than everybody, in every area, no matter what. While he knows a lot, nobody knows everything and Dave has shown he absolutely has an eye for talent.
